HELP MY DUCKLING

[BelovedBirds]

Are these ducklings being kept in the house? If so, are they being kept near the kitchen by chance?

Good question!

I really wish these feed stores would offer simple instructions on care. Sure would make things a lot easier. Especially if they sold them the ducks and chicks then sold them layer feed
I have just started to sell and I give this info to my buyers. I want them to have healthy strong ducks

Same here. I wish any place that sells animals would have that.

No need to quote me - I'm not the OP.


What is the typical waterer? If a chick waterer it is not the right thing. They need a bowl deep enough to stick their heads in.

I don’t think I meant to
I’m still new to this site and didn’t mean any harm by it

It’s a learning curve for me
I really didn’t know I even did it
Maybe lack of sleep worrying about this duckling

Do not try to force feed water or anything. Often when they are too weak you can cause them to drown by trying to force water. If you have an incubator or a box to keep it warm and keep water with electrolytes available.

Near the kitchen yes cuz that's where my room is

If your family uses Teflon coated pots and pans to cook with, this *could* be the culprit, especially if they're in close proximity to the kitchen. You may want to ask your Mom

Can you see if someone else can adopt the ducklings from you?

You have your hands full with school and your new chicks. You are too young to have this much stress.
